And to go a step further, any acronym that represents anything even remotely progressive is a fnord to MAGA.

Glances at the mountains of news of the Trump administration attempting to force their way into election offices

I have to agree California rolls kinda suck. Spicy tuna is king of you want a cheap simple roll.

If only this article was about those California rolls. Then I could add it to my growing list of Not The Onion posts.

Probably. But even for a billboard this is overkill!

It’s been in its infancy for a long, long time.

“AI,” as we know it today, is just marketing speak that refers to LLMs or image generators. That isn’t to say there isn’t grain of truth to the usage of the word. Machine learning is the underlining method used to “train” these models with whatever information needed to full fill a task. So, yes, it is “learning” per se but not in any way similar to humans. It’s just a computer doing what we tell it to do at the end of the day.

And that’s fine if it weren’t for the fact that the training data is based on our art and that it consumes even more power and water than even blockchain! Unlike blockchain, there is no known way to undo that. Like, I’ll at least give credit to devs behind Ethereum. They acknowledged it was power hungry and switched to an efficient algorithm. Still doesn’t addresses the laundry list of issues but credit where credit is due. What’s the solution for AI?

A lot of that is mostly the fault of the technology. But we still like it anyway.

Except that hasn’t happened.

You underestimate our ability to discover patterns. It’s this trait that has given us language, art, science, etc. That very same ability is why we’re able to figure out small little nuances like the above mentioned delving phenomenon. And the fact that the companies behind these models are so dead set on preventing people from writing erotic fiction in favour of bland literature with forced morals only adds to said predictability.

And if there is one thing people hate more than bad literature, it’s a boring one.

the wilful ignorance and denial is really just the unspoken feeling of uncanny valley surfacing

This article is discussing a research paper that looked into AI’s hilarious tendency to “delve,” among other things, and one of the many conclusions they came to is exactly what we all already suspected: it sucks at fiction. That is the furthest thing from being willfully ignorant.

“It will take notes”? AI is just autocorrect on steroids.

To be fair, it was heavily implied that the Cullens were rich. At least in the films.

Probably the most toxic form of gas on the planet.

Most of that is just Sodom and Gomorrah. God has more to say about what to do with slaves and how to treat them compared to sexual relations between two people.

“Oh, no. Facts!” Rod Joseph shrieked in horror.

All that push for states rights is really starting to backfire on them.

It’s recent. Just posted today.

We’re going to need a new White House when this all over.

Oh shit… I never thought about that.

Go ahead, Microsoft. Snap yourself out of existence.
